Aroy Mak Mookata has been around for years and has been reviewed by many food bloggers. They have 2 stores - Serangoon garden and MacPherson while Serangoon garden has just open for one year.

What is worth doing a review is that despite there are many mookata - authentic or fusion. Most mookata stalls seldom represent their origin of taste. This is not true for Aroy Mak. In their ala carte standard buffet ; is worthy to mention that they serve marination meat and sausages infused with typical Chiang Rai spices which is strong in lemongrass and cumin.

Not to mentioned that they have the typical street food- Thai sausages that just make it so sawadi feel.

Seafood selections are limited for standard price buffet unless you go for the deluxe version but looking at menu I think is an overkill comprises of salmon and lobsters and considering mookata is a street eat. Nevertheless is still worth as top up price is less than 10 dollars for the upgrade.

The squid serve in standard buffet was the only seafood in menu but was satisfying as it is plump and juicy and not hard regardless you boil or grill it.

Tip: dinner starts 5pm for mookata but do come early as observe the dinner group are usually in packs of 8 as only 2 tables available for couples while remaining tables are needed to serve other customers their other noodle dishes. Got crowded by 7pm.

This applies to standard menu, order their Chiang Rai flavoured meat and sausages as priority as is most delish among all meat dishes. Follow by their squid , liver , mushroom balls and fish roe balls.

For vegetables , all okie but avoid the 小白菜 which was too hard for us despite Long hour of cooking.

The Thai noodle is quite salty on its own so do put last in soup to avoid destroying the soup.

There are small thongs at the free drink and ice cream section for you to use when turning and grilling food.

For the Suki sauce , of all 3 selection from normal to strongest

Need to improved on staffing and availability of grill pot which the boss has acknowledge and apologised for that. As also ordering may not turn up as what you ordered when things gets heated up.

Overall is a worthy dinner that does not break your bank and is below 50 dollars for 2 .
